Description
Mel Bochner Drawings A Retrospective is a comprehensive examination of the artist's inventive drawing practice, spanning works on paper and oversized wall drawings from the 1960s to the present.
Collaboratively conceived and designed with the artist, this book documents the first-ever museum retrospective of Mel Bochner's drawings. It features his own writings about his philosophy of wall drawings and reflections on significant exhibitions of his work.
A key figure in the Minimalist and Conceptual Art movements, Mel Bochner is known for works that explore the conventions of language and visual art, as well as their relationships. This book celebrates his experimental works on paper, canvas, and wall, which are a foundational facet of his practice and a critical influence on contemporary art.
